Take a springy body with two weighted ends and embed weighted spinning wheels with really precisely controllable speed and coordination. Change the resonance by changing the speed of the wheels. Attach a feather to both ends.

Because it will be beautiful, you’ll be able to switch harmonics from Long swoops to quivering stasis. Because there will be no moving parts other than every molecule moving in relation to every other molecule. Because Donald Trump is a trump card. Because North Korea. Because the time has come the walrus said, to talk of many things, of Korean Massage suicide prevention emergency ambulance lawyers, of temperature orgies in the sky, and wings.-- JesusHChrist, Oct 09 2017 Ah, with you now, thanks. I thought you were expecting it to fly or sutin.-- MaxwellBuchanan, Oct 09 2017 If this doesn’t fly I will eat my own H.-- JesusHChrist, Oct 09 2017 Well, I have to say that the probability of this thing flying is non-zero. The design parameters leave a lot of wiggle room, literally.
May I ask a question? Have you ever built something that flew, in the sense of gaining altitude, or maintaining altitude over a significant period of time?-- MaxwellBuchanan, Oct 09 2017 yes-- JesusHChrist, Oct 09 2017 May I ask another question? What was it?-- MaxwellBuchanan, Oct 09 2017 As I said before, there is no relationship with that woman. I did not have sexual relations with that woman.-- JesusHChrist, Oct 09 2017 Good. Sex with relations is frowned upon outside Norfolk.
What did you build that flew?-- MaxwellBuchanan, Oct 09 2017 a pumpkin with a feather in it-- JesusHChrist, Oct 09 2017 That's impressive, but I've seen it on Youtube.-- MaxwellBuchanan, Oct 09 2017 This might be an imprint from the formative looking up, cot years.
Although, more dynamic wings seem a no brainer to me with advancing computational advances.-- wjt, Oct 10 2017 //might be an imprint// Oh, dear. Are we doing Primal Scenes?-- pertinax, Oct 10 2017 My socks are choking me.-- JesusHChrist, Oct 10 2017 I say let your socks win. Starving your brain of oxygen for a moment may "reboot" it, and you might forget about feathers for a while... That said, this thing might a least make a good cat toy.-- neutrinos_shadow, Oct 10 2017 I was thinking mobile of the feather kind, even dream catcher but clever minds know best.-- wjt, Oct 11 2017 Escher and aperiodic tiling dreamcatchers for etsy! fun...-- beanangel, Oct 13 2017 A baby is learning their vision cues, [beanangel].
